hello everyone, Does any one know how to start an angel trumpet from one of it;s limbs? I planted a couple this May and it has grown from 14 in. to about 4and a half feet. I love the beautiful flowers. Thank you Margie
Are you talking about Datura also known as Angels Trumpet ? If so don`t worry,, when the seed bursts you will have them everywhere. These are toxic plants also known as "loco weed". If different plant,, post a pic.
angel trumpets I believe its the same plant but its about 4ft. tall and I havent seen any seeds, just a nice flower on it about 4-5 in. long; Should seeds be on there to! :-? Thank you so much Margie
Datura innoxia (Hindu Apple, Indian Apple, Downy Thornapple) Brugmansia X candida (Angel's Trumpet) Click on the blue links,these are both called Angel's Trumpet by some. On the Datura a spiny ball will form after the bloom dies, it will turn brown, open and the seeds will fall out. The Brugmansia, the seed pods are long instead of round like a ball. If you protect the roots on the Datura you might get new growth next spring...don't know about rooting the cuttings. Supposedly the Brugmansia cuttings will root.
I grow the Datura double metel... known as Angel or Devil's trumpet... also known as Ballerina Angel Trumpet (due to it's frilly appearance like a ballerina's tutu). Is this the one you have? Datura ( photo / image / picture from cherylad's Garden ) Its seed pods are the spiny round one's Toni mentioned. Just let one of the flowers live out it's life. Once it drops off, the pod will develop. It'll start to turn brown and split. That's when you harvest the seeds. They will start very easy. I've never tried taking a cutting, because they grow pretty fast
